Vanilla Oud is well-regarded by the community as a solid, approachable vanilla fragrance with an interesting smokey-woody angle. While it successfully converts people to the vanilla category and offers good value, some note it skews feminine in development and has strong competition at similar price points.

Tom Ford Noir Extreme receives mixed community feedback. While praised for its luxurious, sophisticated scent profile and excellent longevity on compatible skin types, significant performance variation across individuals and a premium price point make it a fragrance requiring testing before purchase. Community consensus suggests it excels as a fall/winter scent for special occasions rather than casual daily wear.
